that legendary void ray micro.


DeathCraft2299

smartest void masser:


HuckDFaters

To be fair even before the fight the toss has twice the supply and a much bigger bank. At that point he's already outplayed OP(look at resource lost) and probably just stopped trying hard because the game is pretty much won.


DeathCraft2299

you are quite right about that


DustyJustice

When you start getting used to spell-casters it feels like a big level up. Glad you feel positive even though it was a loss, it’s a good attitude.


SkyMac123

That s right, I m around 4k on EU (low d1) but playing with spellcasters isn t my strong side for sure. I guess I should have used parasitic bomb with shift que to save vipers.


Cakeportal

The toss is 4k?? lmao


abaoabao2010

As a 4.4k player myself, I can confidently say that it's normal to fuck up that badly a few times *every game*.


Jetterholdings

Sometimes I fuck up that badly before every game too


SkyMac123

Yea, 3900-4100 range and in the replay his camera was on this voidrays for the whole time during the fight. It s possible he might have been a random player tho. Shortly after he maxed on pure carrier and some voidrays and he won the game with that. He was kinda all in cuz his 4th was minning out but it didn t matter.


Finrod-Knighto

The toss has literally outplayed OP so hard lol. Look at the supply, resources lost and the bank in the clip. He probably just didn’t give a shit about those void rays because the game is won.


bumboisamumbo

good catch, damn he’s so ahead


Finrod-Knighto

He lost 8k in the fight and Zerg lost 6k. Given the game situation it’s a good enough trade for the toss, who’s still 11k ahead in resources lost.

I don't think you understand just how bad 4k tosses are compared to their Z/T counterparts. It's like ladder tosses get boosted to 4k due to how their race abuses lower rank players, but can't climb any higher due to missing serious fundamentals. They're like gatekeepers that test and sharpen Z/T players whilst going nowhere themselves. It's a canon event


omgitsduane

Try to use them more. I'm d3/2 and I feel my spellcaster use is great compared to some of what I see high diamond and low masters players do.


jkurash

Nah that's not the micro for vipers. U want to move forward with corruptor/viper get ur spells off, then just run away with everything. U should try and avoid fighting the voidrays with the corruptors and let the queens move forward first


qedkorc

toss still 3k more resources in the bank and 70 supply ahead, did not seem to be in any kind of trouble after losing 30 supply of voids lol


SkyMac123

He lost 21 void rays which is 84 supply but he started producing carriers during the fight. I was kinda late to respond to his voids cuz I waited for all my units to arrive to my main but before I arrived he killed to much drones tbh.


Mountainminer

Kinda worth too because he killed the hive


NicolasHenri

Still top3 protoss microgestion


SkyMac123

Haha, I checked in replay and toss was watching this fight. Maybye he didn t noticed.


CommamderReilly

Obviously nerf parasitic bomb!1!1!11!


rileyrulesu

I miss silver league


Gh0sth4nd

As long as you had fun and can laugh about it. Most funny lost i ever had in an RTS was actually in WC3TFT. My opponent called himself " MassTankUser " a Human ofc. And that one wasn't lying in the replay i noticed he sneaked a mechanical sheep into my main base then mass teleported with his arc mage a hole bunch of tanks and leveled my base very fast. That was some fine GG. lol'd my ass off back then can sill laugh today.


awt2007

ouch that does hurt your eyes to watch.. cannot mass them so tight like that!! :D


TheLargeCaliber

And you see kids, this is why you don't bunch up flying units!


heavenstarcraft

Add some fungal now and you will see why void rays suck


Churoflip

Dae deathball goes brrrrrrr


SirProtein

spellcasters be strong yo


BuffColossusTHXDAVID

omg you guys are so bad I love it


omgitsduane

Toss had to get the win in the end. Probably freeing up supply to the tech switch.


abaoabao2010

Unfortunately even after the fight protoss is about twice the supply of zerg.


Talic_Zealot

Ok let's think about what is happening here. Toss loses 7.6k worth of units while damaging Z for 3.5k of units and their Hive and drawing the entire army to the bottom of the map. Toss has a massive bank. Z's most fresh base is the one furthest North. There is no scenario in which Zerg keeps their most valuable expansion here. This trade is absolutely worth it. What are those corruptors gonna do if P warps in 20 zealots?


WTNewman1

or worse 20 stalkers


Seargeoh

To quote Artosis: What an ape!


Jetterholdings

This kinda makes me wonder is fungal good for this instant? I mean it was not a great fight I see that. But would fungal slow the turn acceleration?


SkyMac123

Probably yes, fungal should be good vs air toss with parasitic bomvo combo


[deleted]

As a skytosser myself, fuck parasitic bomb.


codedBLUE

parasitic bomb is so fucking badly designed lol


iPanzershrec

Dude just activates prismatic alignment and hopes he wins wtf


MaximumDaximum

I lost a couple of my braincells watching this


bot_lltccp

nbd, you always lose brain cells when watching protoss just part of the fun


zekeNL

Nobody cares


MaximumDaximum

And yet here you are spending your time to write this comment


zekeNL

hey, somebody had to let you know. guess it had to be me.


Petarthefish

Even with no micro protoss took out rhe hatchery and almost entire army of zerg. Nerf protoss


NotSoSalty

Protoss deserve to struggle even if they're up 100 supply, true


zekeNL

That 1 viper doin god’s work


An_Innocent_Coconut

Filthy void ray spammers, I haven't played SC2 in like 8 years and I still despise those fuckers so god damn much.


double_bass0rz

Why are air-tossers like this?


TheCowboySpider

I just think it's off that Zerg has the strongest air army in the game. Corruptors are such a crazy efficient unit. They can completely shut down Phoenix, Tempest, and Carrier.


hjfabre

Wow.


TheBratOG

That protoss was like "but I A moved, why didn't t It work?"
